Planeta Invernadero - Rafael Navarro De Castro.... Work Info
Planeta invernadero by Rafael Navarro de Castro is more than a book of poems. It is a cultural artifact of the Anthropocene. It captures the specific texture of life in the 21st century: the guilt of turning on an air conditioner, the strange beauty of a red sun filtered through wildfire smoke, the loneliness of knowing that the world your children will inherit is fundamentally poorer than the one you received.
The story is set in 2019. Sara, an agronomist from Madrid, moves to the coastal territory of the Poniente—an area famously visible from space due to its vast sea of plastic. While seeking a new path before her fortieth birthday, she becomes entangled in a dangerous web of corporate interests and social inequality. The plot contrasts the high-tech, rapid-growth farming methods (where tomato plants grow centimeters a day) with the lost ancestral wisdom of elder farmers.
